By utilizing characteristic blocking signatures, the interactions between aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and its aptamer were investigated. Furthermore, its aptamer sequence was evolved to have a higher affinity (Kd) calculated to be 18.74 nM for AFB1 than previous reports. This evolved aptamer-based nanopore strategy enabled the sensitive detection of trace AFB1 with a linear range from 0.5 to 100 nM.
